Su Ni sadly turns around. She does not know how Gu Zechen, at the last moment, can tell that she is not Waner, but it is not important now. Barefooted, Su Ni gets out of the bed. She turns to have a look at Gu Zechen, her heart more and more bitterly disappointed.

Is he really just making a show in front of the public for a year’s engagement? Su Ni murmurs: “Gu Zechen, thank you for letting me return to reason. I almost think you have a little affection for me. Su Ni smiles bitterly. “It’s nothing but her own imagination, everything is a joke”. At four o’clock in the morning, the sky is no longer starry, and the neon lights become dim. The night looks gloomy, just the way she is now. Now the room is totally void of light. Su Ni slowly takes off the ring in the darkness. Suddenly the diamond sparkles and shines. Shocked by what she sees, Su Ni holds her breath, quietly putting the ring on the table. After that, she casts a quick glance at Gu Zechen and then quickly leaves the bed. She devotes all her energy to the cleaning of the carpet in one corner of the sofa, after that she takes a bath and puts on her bathrobe again. She is determined to leave when day breaks. With that in mind, she goes back to sleep on the couch. This sleep, unexpectedly, is a deep sleep. Gu Zechen is the first to wake up in the morning. Seeing himself alone on the messy sheet and sensing a severe hangover headache, he cannot help frowning and pounding his head. He gets out of bed, his eyes falling on the ring on the edge of the table. The ring looks familiar to the eyes. At the other end of the room, Su Ni is lying on the sofa, half of her body almost falling to the ground, and Gu Zechen’s eyebrows knit together.

Gu Zechen doesn’t wear anything. He goes straight to Su Ni and pulls the blanket with Su Ni wrapped inside. Su Ni is still in her sleep. When she opens her eyes, she sees a huge object in front of her. She shrinks and raises her head again to see Gu Zechen glaring at her.

“What’s the matter?” Su Ni subconsciously says with the eyes drifting away. She is really not used to seeing Gu Zechen totally naked in broad daylight. “Shouldn’t you explain to me what happened last night?” Gu Zechen drags Su Ni by her arm out of the couch and she is now left in a very uncomfortable posture, squatting. Not yielding to her conditions, he presses on, the fire from the bottom of his eyes almost devouring Su Ni. “I have no idea what you are talking about, I just woke up…” Su Ni breaks free of his clutch and rubs her arm with grievance. She doesn’t know what happened to her. She doesn’t drink, but her head hurts now. Gu Zechen does not say anything. But from the way he looks at her, Su Ni knows he is angry. He pulls Su Ni with such a force that the latter staggers and then falls off the sofa. Then he drags Su Ni all the way to the bedside table. “What’s going on? Well, Su Ni, don’t tell me, it falls down on its own, and then walks there all by himself. “Gu Zechen raises his voice, his two eyes popping out from his sunken eye socket. Seeing this, Su Ni suddenly becomes surprisingly calm. To be more exact, Su Ni’s world is completely hushed when she saw the ring she takes off last night.

What happened last night, like a movie, flashes across her mind. “It is I who put it here.” Su Ni says quietly. Gu Zechen’s thin lips tightly pursed and his face turning livid, he is stunned to hear such an answer from Su Ni. Su Ni looks calm and not hesitant. Gu Zechen sits down on the edge of the bed and lowers his head, gently rubbing his temple with his middle finger. His tone gradually cools, “Su Ni, don’t make me angry. Tell me a reason.” Su Ni sits on the ground with her two long white legs spread at random.

Her nose is a little sour, but she doesn’t feel like crying. After she calms down, she also realizes that her fit of temper last night will ruin everything: it’s very likely that the relationship she and Gu Zechen painstakingly built will come to naught. She slowly picks up the ring, holds it in her hand, and whispers, “It’s my fault. It’s uncomfortable to wear it during sleep.” Gu Zechen grabs Su Ni by her arm with a melancholy and heavy expression on his face, which makes him look so different from the past, so that Su Ni can’t understand him now. Su Ni purses her lips and does not speak. Gu Zechen’s eyes still settled upon her, he says slowly, with a heavy and very serious tone, “It was you who asked me to put on the ring for you in public last night, and this morning it is also you, Su Ni, who took it off. Su Ni, are you making a fool of me?” Suddenly Gu Zechen recalls what Su Ni said that touched him. His eyes become sharp. He sighs suddenly, then gets up, goes to the clothes pile to look for cigarette, but does not find it, so he sits on the sofa decadently, smelling the smell on the carpet and he frowns slightly.

Su Ni is still biting her lip without justifying herself. “Come here.” Gu Zechen speaks to her. Su Ni’s eyes flashing a trace of panic, she gets more and more nervous. She walks slowly towards Gu Zechen, who stretches out his hand. “Gu Zechen” Su Ni is very terrified, her voice carrying a sobbing tone and she helplessly looks at Gu Zechen. She apologizes in a low voice, “It’s all my bad, my bad, is that Ok?” Gu Zechen, without saying anything, directly pulls her into his arm, and then breaks off her hand. Su Ni’s face suddenly turns red, even her palm beginning to burn. At the sight of Gu Zechen reaching out for the ring, Su Ni quickly retracts her hand. “Give me your hand.” Gu Zechen’s facial expression gentle, he says with a tone that is hard to challenge and disobey. “No”, Su Ni says, taking a deep breath, her eyes turning red. “3, 2……” Before Gu Zechen says 1, Su Ni quickly stretches out her hand, and then looks at him in an appeasing manner. Gu Zechen glances at her, his expression as usual, without a trace of extra emotion. He holds her hand and puts the ring on her finger again. After that, Gu Zechen lets go of her hand. Su Ni slowly raises the ring to the eyes, her eyes wide, and stares at it. Gu Zechen says indifferently: “Since I put it on for you, I don’t care what reason you have in the future, and only I can take it off, do you understand?” Su Ni’s heart flips, subconsciously looking at Gu Zechen, a trace of confusion flashing across her eyes.

What does he mean by that? “Only you can take it off?” Su Ni stammers, her heart trembling. “Any problems?” Gu Zechen lifts his eyebrow, throwing the problem back again. From the French windows, Su Ni can see his image clearly: he looks so handsome, his face sparkling as if catching the glimmers of light which gives it a layer of warm color. “Well?” Gu Zechen slowly approaches her. Watching his face almost touching hers and his breath on her face, Su Ni instantly jumps back as if electrified. Then, Su Ni blushes and wants to hide, but she is right in Gu Zechen’s arms, where else can she hide. “I see.” Su Ni’s eyes drifting away, she says quickly. Gu Zechen then stops, as if satisfied with Su Ni’s attitude and pats Su Ni’s buttocks, motioning her to get up first. Su Ni this time seems to be almost relieved and quickly stands up, deliberately keeping a certain distance from Gu Zechen. After that, she watches Gu Zechen walking towards the bathroom dump founded.
